This Week in Heroism: Guy Saves Skunk With Coke Can on Head

September 27, 2016

Not all heroes wear capes. Some are Russian dudes who save kittens from highways. Some are Canadian dudes who save skunks from a dangerous Coke problem. Get ready to feel good inside, because here’s the original video of Mike MacMillan rescuing a skunk whose head got stuck in a Coke can:

The video, entitled “The bravest thing I’ve ever done,” is worth watching all the way through to really get a sense of the dramatic tension MacMillan goes through in his rescue. The highs, the lows, the risk of getting sprayed — that stuff does NOT come out, by the way — it all makes the ultimate payoff all the sweeter. (If you’re too impatient to sit through a video that’s about as long as “Fell In Love With a Girl,” the moment of truth gets started at around 1:30.) Good job, fella! Some guy wrote a song about him or the Berlin wall or something:

But wait, there’s more! MacMillan has been on YouTube for a few years, animating soundbites by atheists. If that’s your thing, here’s an animation of Richard Dawkins answering a question about the scientific method:
